I write to detangle my thoughts, so that I don’t tie myself in knots. If I can enjoy the process, then that will be a bonus.
I have been diving deep into WordPress, to catchup on the latest tools available to build websites from scratch, only to come back full circle and realise that despite all the modern advancements and new trends, I always go back to the Twenty Fifteen theme.
After spending hours, quite late into the night tweaking and experimenting with blocks and Gutenberg, I realised that what I was really trying to do, unconsciouly, was to recreate the Twenty Fifteen theme. So I downloaded it, disabled Gutenberg and saved my self a lot of headaches.
I also went down the rabbit hole of the Wayback Machine of the Internet Archive, where I unearthed my first, self-hosted blog. I used to write in it between 2002 and 2010. It felt like my younger self appearing in front of my very eyes and staring back at me fiercely.
